Sinekatalog’s take

A famous singer takes in a young woman cast out by her family after she discovers her fiancé's betrayal. Atıf Yılmaz handles the melodrama with more care than usual. A good pick for fans of classic Turkish romantic drama.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
